Street of Shame

Tales of women who work in a brothel, sharing their individual stories.

In Tokyo's Yoshiwara district, five prostitutes navigate their daily struggles and personal ambitions at Dreamland, a backdrop to the looming threat of a prostitution ban. Each woman has her own unique story: Hanae, a married mother seeking financial stability; Yumeko, a widow working to provide for her son; Yorie, an aging woman with a potential suitor; Yasumi, a diligent saver aiming to escape her debt; and Mickey, a free-spirited individual torn between her independence and family obligations.
